Chapter 415: Set off for the border
When it was still dark, the Bai family got up one after another.
The day has come for Bai Zhaomei to leave home and go to the border, and she has to set off with General Meng early in the morning, so the Bai family gets up early to see her off.
Xiao Fuyuan naturally woke up, she put on her clothes today, got out of bed and came to the porch.
A cold wind blew, and Xiao Fuyuan tightened his jacket.
It snowed heavily overnight, and the entire yard was covered in thick snow, and long ice skates hung from the eaves.
The lanterns in the courtyard remained unextinguished overnight, swaying in the wind, illuminating the whole courtyard with a warm yellow light.
The kitchen emitted a bright light, and Xiao Fuyuan sighed in his heart that his sister-in-law got up really early, and came to the kitchen door with her calves.
When I looked around, I saw Zhen pinching dumplings in the kitchen.
"Mother." Xiao Fuyuan shouted.
As soon as Zhen looked up and saw the little girl, the tears that he had time to wipe rolled down.
Xiao Fuyuan hurriedly ran into the kitchen, hugged Zhen and said, "Mother, don't cry." ”
The mother must be reluctant to give up the fifth brother.
Zhen is indeed full of reluctance, what he says on weekdays is good, but when it comes to parting, he is still uncomfortable.
What's more, Bai Zhaomei is her youngest son, who hurts more than other sons, and has always grown up in her arms.
In addition, Bai Zhaomei went to the border, and faced a scene where she could be injured or killed.
If Bai Sanzhuang went to Nanyang, Zhen was reluctant, and Bai Zhaomei went to the border to bring Zhen not only reluctance but also sadness.
Zhen's flour in his hand was held by Xiao Fuyuan.
"Mother, the fifth brother will be fine."
Xiao Fuyuan emphasized the words that he didn't know how many times he emphasized, and took out his mother's handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"What's wrong with you? Don't sleep much. Zhen Shi felt the warm little hands of his daughter, ironed words, and asked.
"I want to send the fifth brother." Xiao Fuyuan said.
Zhen nodded and sighed: "Your fifth brother didn't hurt you in vain. ”
"Obediently, you sit at the door of the pot, it's warm there."
Zhen asked Xiao Fuyuan to sit on the chair at the door of the pot, and the stove was bubbling slightly. Xiao Fuyuan sat on the chair, only feeling warm and comfortable.
"Mother, I'm up late." Xie Chuntao came to the kitchen and saw that Zhen felt guilty in his heart, and reached out to take the rolling pin.
My mother-in-law is not good at cooking.
Xie Chuntao originally planned to get up early this morning to make dumplings for Bai Zhaomei, so that he could eat and hurry, but he didn't expect to get a little dizzy from drinking yesterday and didn't get up in time.
"It's okay, you should sleep more when it's cold. I should be a mother and make a bowl of dumplings for your fifth brother. Zhen smiled.
"Then I'll help my mother light the fire." Xie Chuntao came to the door of the pot.
"My sister-in-law is also here." Xie Chuntao saw her sister-in-law sitting at the door of the pot obediently, her dark eyes were brighter by the firelight, and her whole heart softened.
"Sister-in-law, I'll get up and send the fifth brother." Xiao Fuyuan stuffed a handful of firewood into the stove.
Bai Zhaomei almost didn't close her eyes all night, he repaired the damaged farm tools at home, fed the pigs, cattle and sheep, wiped his sister's gadgets clean, and after all this, he took a knife and went to Nanguan Mountain.
When he went down the mountain with firewood on his back, the snow had stopped.
When I came to the house, the sound of my mother and sister talking came from the kitchen, and Bai Zhaomei knew that my mother was making dumplings for herself.
"Old Five, where did you go early in the morning?" Bai Muban was surprised to see his youngest son walking into the house in the snow.
"Fifth brother, you're chopping wood!" Bai Dazhuang said as he walked forward and took the firewood on Bai Zhaomei's back.
Xiao Fuyuan heard the movement, came out to watch for a while, and then walked into the kitchen and brought a bowl of hot water to the fifth brother.
"Sister, I'll come. Be careful with scalding. Bai Erzhuang took the hot water from Xiao Fuyuan's hand and handed it to Bai Zhaomei.
"Fifth brother, you haven't slept all night?" Xiao Fuyuan saw the snow on the fifth brother's body, and his feet were covered with mud, and asked.
Bai Zhaomei is straight, and she can't hide anything from her sister.
"Sister, I gave it to you, and this branch bloomed on the mountain."
Bai Zhaomei turned around and took out a branch of red plum from the firewood room, which he found on the way down the mountain, and picked it up and gave it to his sister.
I have already left home to go to the border, and I have nothing left for my sister, so I will leave my sister a plum blossom.
In winter, there are only plum blossoms with sisters.
"Thank you, Fifth Brother, I like it very much." Xiao Fuyuan took the red plum, and his heart was warm.
Hearing that my sister said that she liked it very much, Bai Zhaomei was like eating honey and her heart was sweet.
"Fifth brother, I'll make it into dried flowers, and when Sister Cuicui comes, I'll say that you gave it to her before leaving." Xiao Fuyuan said softly.
When Bai Zhaomei heard Cuicui, her eyes lit up.
The last time Cuicui was by the river, she said that he was going to the border and couldn't come to see her off, and she was in tears.
"Fifth brother, you really haven't slept all night."
Bai Dazhuang saw the neat and clean vegetable garden test field, repaired the neatly stacked farm tools, and the small wooden horse of his sister who was wiped clean.
Bai Zhaomei smiled and said, "Didn't I go to the border right away?" Do more work before leaving, and the work at home will be on my father and eldest brother in the future. ”
"Are you sleepy? What should I do today? You hurry up and go to sleep. Bai Dazhuang was moved and cared.
Bai Zhaomei waved her hand and said, "I'm not tired, I'm not sleepy, I heard General Meng say that he didn't sleep for many days when he was marching urgently, what is this." ”
Bai Muban looked at his youngest son with a complicated mood, and while he was relieved that the fifth child had grown up, he felt distressed about the fifth child who had not slept all night.
"Old five, listen to your eldest brother, you go and squint for a while." Bai Muban said.
"Dad, I'm not sleepy. I'm going to have to clear the snow. ”
After Bai Zhaomei finished speaking, she carried a broom and began to clear the snow, and decided to clean up the snow at home before leaving, so that her father and several brothers would not have to remove the snow.
"Okay, don't do it, fifth brother, if you are not sleepy, go and talk to your mother and grandmother." Bai Erzhuang snatched the broom from Bai Zhaomei's hand and drove him to the kitchen.
The sky was bright.
Bai Zhaomei ate three bowls of dumplings made by Zhen's own hands.
Here, General Meng and Xie Xiaolian Wu Xiaoying have already set their horses and are about to set off.
Bai Dazhuang threw Bai Zhaomei's luggage package into the carriage, Bai Zhaomei sat in Xie Xiaolian's carriage, and he would ride a horse with his master along the way.
People in the village came to see off Bai Zhaomei.
After all, Xiao Fuyuan said that Bai Zhaomei can be a general, so he can't pull in the relationship when he is not developed.
When the autumn wind is blowing, he sends Bai Sanzhuang to the South Seas, and when the snow is falling, he sends Bai Zhaomei to the border.
The people in the village sighed that the son of the old Bai family is becoming more and more promising, one is going to engage in silver, and the other is going to engage in the future.
Bai Muban came to General Meng and said a lot of words to take care of his son.
"Old Five, you hug your sister again." Zhen said suddenly.
Although she had already hugged her when she went out, Bai Zhaomei didn't mind hugging it again.
Bai Muban picked up Xiao Fuyuan and handed it to Bai Zhaomei, and Bai Zhaomei hugged Xiao Fuyuan tightly.
"Fifth brother will be safe." Xiao Fuyuan said.
"I'll hug the little round treasure too." Xie Xiaolian picked up Xiao Fuyuan from Bai Zhaomei's arms and hugged him.
"Brother Pian will be safe." Xiao Fuyuan said.
"I'll hug it too." Meng Zhixu turned over and dismounted, strode under Xie Xiaolian's horse, and pulled Xiao Fuyuan into his arms.
"Uncle Meng......" Xiao Fuyuan looked at Meng Zhixu's eyes and said seriously, "I will win battles, big victories, and win every battle." ”
Meng Zhixu touched Xiao Fuyuan's head, laughed, and then reluctantly put her down.
Before Xiao Fuyuan could land with his feet, he stabbed out a person obliquely and fished him away again.
"Brother Xiaoying will be safe." Xiao Fuyuan said to Wu Xiaoying.
The people who received the blessing of Xiao Fuyuan, everyone was full of pride and determination, turned over the horse again, and pulled the reins.
